#morningwarmupsketch 03/02/21 Funny thing is that this is turning more into a lunch time sketch thing. But here is an update on my Ninja Turtle drawing. I’m hoping to finish it soon! #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #wip #workinprogress #teenagemutantninjaturtles #tmnt #mikey #Michelangelo #Donny #donatello #nunchucks #ninja #mutants #turtles #heroesinahalfshell #turtlepower #booyakasha https://www.instagram.com/p/CL8U_xnDEQI/?igshid=49n7290fqsqe

02/23/21 #morningwarmupsketch I’m still working on the Michelangelo sketch. But things have gotten very interesting around here, so I haven’t had a ton of time to finish that art yet. So today I am posting a drawing that Jack asked me to do about two weeks ago. He wanted a drawing of him as a semi-cosmically-powered-Demi-god. All I know is that it has something to do with Undertale. #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #undertale #tobyfox https://www.instagram.com/p/CLqVSSEjYT0/?igshid=1mq4qmhb70ihb

#ml13workshop 02/18/21 Last Christmas Santa brought me some sweet upgrades for my Ender 3 Pro. I got the upgraded glass bed, a Capricorn Bowden tube, and the BL Touch sensor to self-level the bed. This may sound dull, but for a guy like me, it is all very cool. Last weekend was the first opportunity I had to do the upgrade for the BL Touch. Before I could do that I had to flash the firmware and install a bootloader onto the board. I had watched several YouTube videos that went about this in different ways. In the first video, I watched they recommended using a USB microcontroller programmer downloader and ordered one, and I couldn't get the computer to see it. I then mucked around in Terminal trying to get it to work and then guesses that maybe I had a bad part. I ordered a replacement controller and discovered that the controller was fine, but discovered it was an issue with the drivers, then I spent the next two days trying to get the drivers to run on my computer. I then found a workaround for the driver issue. This involved removing the bottom panel off the bottom of the electronics box and connecting Dupont leads from my Arduino Uno to the Ender 3 Motherboard. Then uploading the TH3D Marlin software from my laptop using Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment). It was only after all this I discovered I had forgotten about the directions that came with the kit, which included a small piece of hardware that would have let me do all this through the Micro SD port. This once again proves that the hard way of doing things can be the best teacher. I can be stubborn and blindly power-thru until I figure things out. I am finding I have a growing appreciation that it is much easier to have someone over your shoulder to tell you that there is a better way. #3dprinting #fabrication #maker @thingiverse #thingiverse #ender3 #ender3creality #creality #cad #design #th3d #ArduinoIDE #TH3DMarlin #TH3D #Marlin https://www.instagram.com/p/CLdaJ-bjb5S/?igshid=1ce5e7gqcj3al

02/14/21 Valentine’s Day Audio Drama recommendation! I think this is almost more of a Gal-entine’s Day show, rather than a Valentine’s Day show because the main character, X: the girl in Girl In Space needs no one. She is perfectly content with her life making science, cheese, and watching the universe’s oldest copy of Jurassic Park. Then some weird stuff starts happening around her. It’s the perfect show if you are over space wizards with laser swords and galactic space navy stories! #audiodramaeveryday #scriptedpodcast #audiodrama #girlinspace #SarahRheaWarner @SarahRheaWarner @girlinspacepodcast https://www.instagram.com/p/CLTJk5gjr4T/?igshid=1i0evm5g2hge1

02/11/21 #morningwarmupsketch I needed a break from the memorial drawings, so today here is a Work-In-Progress of ninja turtle, Michelangelo. Donny (Donatello) is my boy, but Nunchucks are my preferred martial arts weapon. Hence, Mikey as today’s #wip. #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #wip #workinprogress #teenagemutantninjaturtles #tmnt #mikey #Michelangelo #Donny #donatello #nunchucks #ninja #mutants #turtles #heroesinahalfshell #turtlepower #booyakasha https://www.instagram.com/p/CLK_QsODTVB/?igshid=15mb12d8ctbzm

#morningwarmupsketch 02/10/21 Still catching up on memorial sketches, today's drawing is memorializing Larry King. When people mention Larry King my first association comes to his brief cameo in Ghostbusters when he opened his show with the intro: "Hi, this is Larry King. The phone-in topic Today: "Ghosts and Ghostbusting." The controversy builds, more sightings are reported, some maintain that these professional paranormal eliminators in New York are the cause of it all." This was during the montage going into the Second Act when the amount of Psycho Kinetic Energy in New York City begins to escalate. Using the common Twinkie as a frame of reference, according to Egon's morning readings that it would be a Twinkie 35 feet long, weighing approximately 600 pounds. This is what Wikipedia had to say: "...an American television and radio host, whose awards included two Peabodys, an Emmy, and ten Cable ACE Awards. He hosted over 50,000 interviews. King was a WMBM radio interviewer in the Miami area in the 1950s and 1960s, and gained prominence in 1978 as host of The Larry King Show, an all-night nationwide call-in radio program heard on the Mutual Broadcasting System. From 1985 to 2010, he hosted the nightly interview television program Larry King Live on CNN. King hosted Larry King Now from 2012 to 2020, which aired on Hulu, Ora TV, and RT America. He hosted Politicking with Larry King, a weekly political talk show, on the same three channels from 2013 to 2020. King also appeared in television series and films, usually playing himself." #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #larryking #peabody #aceawards #cnn #emmy #ghostbusters #twinkie #egon #egonspengler #wikipedia #rip https://www.instagram.com/p/CLHcasbDK7T/?igshid=6q6j40fdoib2

02/09/21#morningwarmupsketch Hank Aaron passed away on January 22. This is what Wikipedia had to say about him: “Aaron is regarded as one of the greatest baseball players of all time. His 755 career home runs broke the long-standing MLB record set by Babe Ruth and stood as the most for 33 years; Aaron still holds many other MLB batting records. He hit 24 or more home runs every year from 1955 through 1973, and is one of only two players to hit 30 or more home runs in a season at least fifteen times. In 1999, The Sporting News ranked Aaron fifth on its list of the "100 Greatest Baseball Players". In 1982, he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.” #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #baseball #hankaaron #hammer #hammerinhank #mlb #halloffame https://www.instagram.com/p/CLEwdbuDcqV/?igshid=17ojvyyn29laj

#ml13workshop 02/08/21 Our home office makes a nice workspace courtesy of the good people at Ikea. The only drawback is that the tables that we got have no drawers. I have a bunch of stuff at my station like jump drives, and cables that just sits there with no place for them to go. On thingiverse.com I found this great modular compartment system called the Hive, designed by O3D (@03d_official). The name comes from the octagonal-shaped compartments that resemble a bee-hive. I decided to start with printing four cells. I printed the exterior shells in PETG which went fine, then I thought I would print the drawers in orange PLA. The first two went fine. It had a print time of almost ten and half hours, so I started it when I left for work and it was done when I got home and it printed beautifully. The next day I set the second set to print as I was leaving for work and when I got home I found one on the floor half printed with a flair of plastic spaghetti. The other one was still on the print bed with the noodles explosion going every which way! I have no idea what happened during the second print, but at least now I can check the SPAGHETTI MONSTER incident off my list of possible printing catastrophes. #3dprinting #fabrication #maker @thingiverse #thingiverse #ender3 #ender3creality #creality #hive #ikea #o3d #petg #pla #spaghettimonster https://www.instagram.com/p/CLDuIFOD4VU/?igshid=1imz1gpciqawh

#morningwarmupsketch 02/04/21 Actor Mira Furlan is the subject of today's memorial sketch, she passed away on January 20th. I know her best as Danielle Rousseau, the French castaway on the television series LOST. She also is known for the role of Delenn in Babylon 5. #digitalink #procreate #digitalsketch #MiraFurlan #lost #DanielleRousseau #040815162342 #Delenn #babylon5 #babylonfive #rip https://www.instagram.com/p/CK4xASjjD_P/?igshid=10er2mb2wd2vo
